Over the past nine years Bing Copeland and Matt Calvani have resurrected one of Surfing’s most iconic surfboards labels. After a chance meeting on a desolate point break in
Baja the two have formed a relationship that has propelled Bing surfboards to the forefront of the modern surfboard industry. Started in 1959 by legendary surfer Bing Copeland, the brand
has always been synonomis with a stacked surf team, a classic ad campaign and great surfboards. Currently all operations are run by head shaper Matt Calvani and partner Margaret Yao out
of the South Bay of Los Angeles. On a recent trip north to work on a few new board concepts, I figured it appropriate to find out how they’ve kept Bing surfboards forever young.
